VC4-500 Idex weird first layer problems
I have been chasing this issue for many hours at this point and while many things have improved there is still something weird going on.
The skirt potion of every print that I try, and parts of the initial perimeters do not adhere to the build plate at all. I think it is because of the z-offset but I am not sure.
After that point, the rest of the first layer is laid down beautifully. Even with all the blobs from the failed portion of the print in the way.
I have shimmed and wright bed my x axis to get a better height map (came warped). I have tried re-doing beacon calibrations including temperature offset calibration via the VAOC. I have tried printing with both toolheads and different filament types. None of the above seems to make a real difference.
Open to any ideas on what to try next.
